Multi-skilled general repair work — small carpentry, painting touch-ups, fixing, assembly, minor plumbing. Sole-trader tax profile is straightforward but the cross-trade tooling needs care at year end.
Melton's small repairs, fixes, assemblies and odd jobs are handled by handyperson tradies running cross-trade rounds. Fixed fee, written quote, on time.
Drills, saws, basic plumbing wrenches, painting kit. Each tool tracked under $300 immediate, above depreciate.
Logbook captures high work-km because handypersons do many small jobs in a day.
Steel-cap boots, hi-vis with logo, safety glasses, dust masks. Replacement frequency moderate.
Tradify, ServiceM8 or similar at work-use percentage. Phone diary supports the percentage.
Premiums proportional to handyperson scope are deductible. Confirm scope covers all trade types you take on.
Plumbing, gas, electrical work above minor scope require a licensed trade. Doing it without breaches both compliance and insurance — and the income may not be deductible-against.
Plain T-shirts and shorts aren't uniform even on the tools. Only branded or genuinely protective gear qualifies.
